Red Toe, Red Door: How Metabolic Therapy cured my arthritis

About this ebook
Adam Huber’s story is a moving, inspiring account of his journey from crippling arthritis to radiant health and wellness—in just four short months. For 11 years, he suffered from progressive degeneration and joint pain that left him unable to work, function normally or even move short distances unaided. He was emaciated and barely able to function when he met Frank Ludde—a Metabolic Therapist who developed a unique nutritional approach that proved effective in treating all forms of degenerative disease, including cancer, Parkinson’s and even Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Completely cured of his debilitating disease by Ludde’s revolutionary therapy, Huber spent three years observing and learning about Ludde’s work. Now, eight years after Frank Ludde’s death, Huber has consolidated his considerable knowledge and first-hand experience in this practical guide to recovery and vibrant health, designed for anyone suffering from arthritis or other degenerative conditions.
Adam Huber
After being healed of his arthritic condition in 1992, Adam Huber worked as an assistant to Frank Ludde for three years. This sometimes included making up and administering intramuscular vitamin injections. He went on to explore alternative spiritual modalities and studied with a psychic medium who helped him develop his spiritual gifts. Adam then began practicing healing and energy work—first with friends and then with clients. During this time, he manufactured the Earwicks brand of ear candles while living in Vancouver, BC, Canada. After several years, the ear-candle business was booming and Adam sold the business in order to devote himself full time to the healing energy work. He continues this work today and plans to open a clinic that will include Metabolic Therapy, combined with emotional and spiritual awareness. He currently lives on Salt Spring Island off the coast of British Columbia, Canada.

Praise for Red Toe, Red Door
Adam Huber has written a refreshingly honest and practical account of his courageous journey from crippling arthritis to radiant health. Told by the medical profession that there was no cure for his disease and that he would have to take drugs for the rest of his life, Huber chose to fight back―with incredible results. Convinced that the drugs were poisoning his system and not helping at all, he embarked on a decade-long quest for a cure, ultimately transforming his body and his life. His determination and focus led him to experiment with a wide range of modalities and diets, eventually bringing him, in 1991, to the red door that opened up to a remarkable healing process. He has been free of arthritis ever since. Huber takes us through that door, and provides details of the process so that others can benefit from it also. Red Toe, Red Door reveals a triumph of body, mind and spirit over seemingly impossible odds―a must-read for anyone who suffers from arthritis (and some 20% of us will) or any other degenerative disease.
―Lewis Evans, author of Hominine—it’s time to choose
One year ago, my body broke out in a rash. It started as a small red spot and quickly moved everywhere except my face and lower legs. My arms and thighs began weeping and were unbearably itchy. After trying many therapies, I started the metabolic therapy and, after two months, I felt healed. My body felt more nourished and energized than ever before. To this day, if I miss the soup, I feel underfed. It has become cellular nourishment that I crave.
―Kim Christie
I’m so grateful for having been introduced to Frank Ludde’s Metabolic Therapy. When I began the therapy with Adam Huber, I was recovering from uterine cancer, cardiac arrest, coma, massive surgeries, blood transfusions and ensuing surgical complications. Although I survived it all, three years later, my body still was not functioning properly; I had infections, heart trouble, vomiting, insomnia and extreme pain and fatigue. I also had problems with my potassium levels, my blood, my vision and my bowels. I am convinced that Metabolic Therapy saved my life. Since completing the therapy, I have gained a much-needed 25lbs. I am no longer vomiting, the potassium crashes and heart palpitations have stopped, and my bowels are functioning properly. Nowadays, when I run into people I haven’t seen for a while, they no longer recognize me. I feel it’s very important to let those with life-threatening illnesses and ‘incurable’ diseases know about the power of Metabolic Therapy. It helped me and I know it can help many others too.
―Denise Johnson, www.oceanofclarity.com
For me, Metabolic Therapy was life-changing, to say the least. I used to have multiple pains all over my body, plus I was suffering from adrenal exhaustion. All of the pain has now gone and I have energy to burn. I was afraid that after I finished the therapy, my symptoms would return, but I have been able to maintain perfect health on just the maintenance program. At first, I was very leery of ingesting chicken feet broth, but now I can’t live without it. I would encourage everyone to try this therapy, regardless of their condition or apprehension. It has forever changed my understanding of what true health is.

FOREWORD
When Adam asked me to read the transcript of Red Toe, Red Door, I was excited to hear that he had taken on this project, and grateful that the information would finally be available to anyone who needed it.
Metabolic Therapy, as described in this book, saved my life when conventional doctors and alternative practitioners had given up on finding a solution to my paralyzing chronic fatigue and asthma; I was in constant fear as many of my body systems were failing simultaneously. By following this therapy, I went from sleeping 23 hours a day to having a healthy pregnancy—within two years. Metabolic Therapy gave me another chance at living a healthy, fulfilling and active life. It works.
Through the years that I was with Frank, I witnessed many healings that the medical establishment considered to be impossible—everything from cancer to mental conditions. It was remarkable to see that essentially the same formula, with minor variations, worked with the majority of these diseases.
Adam’s story of his own healing is magical, fluid and compelling. Once I started reading the book, I could not put it down—even though I know his story well, having personally witnessed his transformation. The account of his journey out of the darkness and limitation of a life with severe arthritis will be an inspiration to all who read it. And Adam’s thoroughly researched and simplified description of Metabolic Therapy provides the ultimate tool on the road from sickness to health.
I feel truly blessed to have had the opportunity to witness Adam’s continued well-being personally over the past 20 years. You are very fortunate to have found this amazing book. May it guide you to health, joy and ease.

PREFACE
Red Toe, Red Door tells the story of one man’s 11-year struggle with unrelenting physical deterioration due to rheumatoid arthritis. It chronicles a personal journey from debilitation, pain and hopelessness, to physical and spiritual transformation, culminating in a powerful and dramatic healing that will instill renewed hope in anyone with chronic or acute disease.
Although this book focuses primarily on arthritis, it has broad implications for every degenerative disease. Based on the remarkable Metabolic Therapy that cured the author and many others suffering from so-called terminal conditions, it provides a blueprint for the reader’s own healing journey, with practical guidelines, suggested protocols and the hard-won wisdom that comes from personal triumph over adversity.

1: MY WORLD ENDS, MY JOURNEY BEGINS
I had no idea that my world was about to end, but end it did. I was 35 years old and on a roll. Money was flooding in and my world felt secure and abundant. I had an active lifestyle, regularly swimming, hiking, cycling and canoeing. I loved being outdoors in nature. In the fall of 1981, after returning from swimming in one of the pristine lakes in the mountains near Vancouver, British Columbia, I noticed that one of the toes on my left foot was red and swollen. I had been on the beach and assumed that I’d picked up a cedar or hemlock sliver from one of the logs that lined the sand. Yet I couldn’t find any sliver that evening, when
